Every organization has its own infrastructure that consists of systems, applications, people and processes. Though the infrastructure is unique to an organization as its culture and business model, in most of the organizations many processes were initially linked and owned by a department. Traditional IT systems were built to support these processes and connect people to them. The result of that has been that many standalone applications exist inside an enterprise that address and solve very narrow problems within departments.
Since the data and the users of these applications existed within a single department, there was not so much thought given in sharing information with other systems. This led to building systems with no application programming interfaces, no open architecture, or other mechanisms that could allow the access to data and processes hosted by these systems. During the coming years, the business environment evolved tremendously with new business drivers having a great impact to organizations. Traditional boundaries between functional units have to be crossed forcing processes and data to be exchanged between departments.
A typical new business driver is the demand to support new distribution channels like desktop browsers and intelligent devices apart from email and telephone. Merger and acquisitions usually add new monolithic systems into an enterprise. The real value of such a business driver can be realized only when any data and processes residing on these systems is integrated and merged with existing systems. Integrating the supply chain is just another business driver with similar impact. These are just some examples of business drivers that lead to enterprise application integration (EAI). So EAI is the ability to share data and business processes that span across many systems and departments as if they were on a monolithic and unified system.
Oracle Cloud Platform for Enterprise Application Integration help rapid connection to SaaS (Software as a Service) applications with the existing ‘on-premises’ systems, empowering users across the enterprise to effectively drive and focus by business innovation, and supporting the ever evolving emerging business requirements like integrating new multiple application of different technologies, mobility requirement, IOT data handling, Any other type of big data handling, Analytics, etc. It enables integration projects to be moved easily between cloud-based and on-premises integration platforms. Oracle Cloud Integration (OCI) services platform mainly comprises following Components:
Enterprise Application Integration will require examination of databases and workflow connections, and a general business decision to adopt application modernization, cloud computing or business process modernization to all areas. These are also aimed at minimizing the rip and replace practice of exiting enterprise application, while at the same time addressing the challenge of scaling up the automation requirement to cater for new business demands.
The most common drivers of EAI are a desire to support mobility, organizational goals to optimize even internet needs and efforts to fully exploit cloud computing.
EAI can take advantage of best practice examples, machine learning-based recommendations, and an extensive library of application adapters for secure, enterprise-grade connectivity. Increase business agility with visual, low-code process automation. Provide employees, customers, and partners the services they need to work more productively—anytime, anywhere, and on any device.
